Default Name this shifter

I’m changing out this shifter but I can’t seem to make out the brand. Let me know if you know what brand it is.

My wager is an early MGW shifter but I might be wrong.

I couldn't come up with that name, several minutes ago, but that was what I was trying to come up with....or maybe Breathless Performance?

Google image shows the breathless bolting the stick to the base with 2 bolts. MGW was the only one that I knew with the allen bolts attaching the upper stick to the base. I may have missed a shifter along the way. Breathless may have had other versions as did other shops who produced shifters.

Yea I didn’t see any mgw markings so that lead me to believe it’s a different brand. I ended up ordering the new style MGW as I’ve run that set before and was very happy with the performance. This one feels like a legit race shifter

I will have to look into breathless products. This one will be for sale soon so I wanted to inform someone of what is is.
